They are working already on the subject. What means "disconnect it from the electricel circuit" ? -
A question to the experts here...... Because my voltage problem came some days After the panorama roof was fixed, is it possible There could be a connection between these two things? I asked because i just read some pages of the self study guide and see there are maybe some relavant parts in the roof area!?
-
I give the car to a vehikel electric center. I hope they will find the problem. Knock on wood. It was not possible to drive. On highway yes, but in city traffic with less rpm i could follow how the voltage drop down more and more and when i was home he didnt even start again.
-
Thank you . I will do so
-
One more wish if possible. I checked the fuse boxes and i found out there is a mess. Can somebody provide me with a fuse diagramm for a 2005 turbo please? The owner manual which we have here in the document sector is confusing. Its says on the top two times "fuse box in left side..." Thank you!
-
Thank you very much
-
Because i didnt know what they did with the battery, i changed the old one For a almost new one from my garage which i loaded before . This time the meter is showing higher numbers. My question, is it possible to drive the car in this condition? Reading from meter in details: Engine off 12 .50 Engine running 11.9 Driving 13.6

Bigbuzuki... Thank you very much. I will check as far as i can . Nice weekend for everybody

Ahsai BOSCH is specialized in cars electric. They have huge diagnostic centers in big places arround. I would give them a try. Some good indy we dont have. Other option is to go to onother porsche shop here in the area
-
I believe i will take the car to BOSCH. I dont trust this porsche shop anymore. I hope they will do a better job
-
The small meter is very accurate. The car has just one battery. If they. Check it? To be honest i dont know what they did
-
The voltage output could be low if there is high resistance in the larger cables. Thank you JFP Would you tell me please if i have access to this bigger cables and where they are? Thankx
-
Its a remanufactured from Bosch. Before i took it they run a test. Output was between 13.70 and 14.5
-
Hi Ahsai But the alternator is new! How possible it is not producing enough?
-
With my small knowlegde i believe this is not a problem of a drain in the system, the new alternator is producing power but the batterie is not charging. I am right?
-
Never ending story ..... I called the shop today. No news. They didnt find anything. I didnt even ask what they did. I just told them to prepare The car, i will take it at evening. So i did. Kessy didnt work. I opend by key. Car was starting without complain. I used this small meter to messure power. It was showing 11.7 After engine run for some time, higher rev and battery warning sign in the display. I played with rev a little bit and felt with higher rev the meter showed 12.5 . Decided to risk to drive home using the highway. During the drive and rpm between 3 and 4000 the meter showed 12.7 to 13 When i arrived home and engine off the meter went down to 11.7 Tomorrow i will try to do something to find what is going on.
-
Thank you. Giving me hope your experience. My car is starting. Very smooth and good after the new starter but.... The battery warning light comes up after some time. I am always thinking and try to remember if i did something what could cause this situation now. I only can wait and see
-
Hello everybody. Received a call again. Service person told me there is a draw in the system which they try to find. He note me that will be difficult and take time. So funny Are they joking ? Can it take 2 days to find something like that?
-
Hi I dont know how they read it. I guess with a multimeter. They called me today and told me ... Sorry there is a problem. Alternator changed but voltage is still at 11. Thats all what they told me.
-
JFP.... I 100 % agree. Thats what they did with all my cars. Sorry to say, but thats reality. To be friendly and nice is not everything in this business. I will have a serious talk with them after this problem is fixed. Thank you!
-
Loren thank you, you touch the point. Thats why i am so dissapointed. They are not able to fix that problem. They ask me now what to do. Jesus !!!! A new starter, a new alternator and still nothing. But is it possible that a draw could be that huge to suck so much electricity that the system is shutting down? Cant believe it.
-
Update: I am very close to loose my self control. Really. Service person just called me. They changed the alternator. And guess what. Reading is still 11 volt. I cant believe it.
-
I am so sorry about . Really . I know what you guys are thinking ..... These crazy germans :-) They built these cars but they cant repair
-
Almost 3 weeks and no end. Jesus. Looks like they take out the engine to change the Alternator :-) They told me monday. I will report how this story comes to an end.
